This bright seventh-floor apartment offers a well-proportioned double bedroom and an open-plan living/kitchen layout, freshly renovated to a modern finish. Large windows flood the space with natural light and deliver city skyline views, making the flat comfortable and easy to live in.
The development provides useful communal facilities — residents’ gym, swimming pool and a 24-hour concierge — plus excellent transport links to Borough, London Bridge and Waterloo. A 970-year lease and low ground rent (circa £75) are strong practical advantages for buyers and investors.
Be aware this is a Grade II listed conversion, which can restrict external and some internal alterations and may complicate future refurbishment plans. The property has an EPC rating of E and electric storage heaters rather than gas central heating, which can affect running costs.
The surrounding Elephant and Castle area is an inner-city, multicultural neighbourhood undergoing change, with many amenities nearby. Crime levels are higher than average and parts of the local area show deprivation; for some buyers this will be a trade-off for central location and strong transport connectivity.
